Drucilla 2.0
Lily (Christel Khalil) and Phyllis’ (Michelle Stafford) feud has slowly been simmering for the past few months. But now it’s all-out war between the two women.
Phyllis’ quest for power and holding onto Newman Enterprises is dragging many people down with her, including Cane (Billy Flynn). Thanks to Victor’s (Eric Braeden) fake AI scheme, Cane was arrested as an accomplice in Phyllis’ illegal activities.
Cane’s arrest came at the worst time since he was about to donate bone marrow to save Malcolm (Shemar Moore). Luckily, Cane was released on bail and will still be able to help Malcolm. However, his legal troubles are far from over.
Seeing Cane exhausted and worried about his legal mess has increased Lily’s anger towards Phyllis. On the May 12th episode, Lily confronted Phyllis and demanded she clear Cane’s name.
When Phyllis laughed at her request, Lily pulled out the ultimate threat. Lily vowed to take down Phyllis by channeling her mother, Drucilla’s (Victoria Rowell) hatred for Miss Summers.
While Phyllis is normally calm, cool, and collected, she seemed spooked by Lily’s threat. And she has every right to be.
Vengeance For Her Mother
Phyllis versus Drucilla was one of Y&R’s top rivalries. The two women often clashed over work and their kids. Their heated feud took a tragic turn in 2007.
During a modeling shoot in the mountains, Drucilla tried to break up a fight between Phyllis and Sharon (Sharon Case). In the midst of the scuffle, both Sharon and Drucilla fell off a cliff. While Sharon was later rescued, Drucilla was presumed dead.
Lily, who witnessed her mother’s fall, has never forgotten that Phyllis was responsible for Drucilla’s death. Although Phyllis didn’t face any punishment for Drucilla’s death, she might get karma thanks to Lily.
Drucilla was one woman who could hold her own against Phyllis. She wasn’t afraid to speak her mind or fight Phyllis. Now Lily is going to channel all of her mother’s energy to take down Phyllis.
While Phyllis might dismiss Lily’s threat, she could regret it. With a strong, determined, and angry Lily emerging, Phyllis will have more problems added to her pile.
